Juhani Heinonen
Juhani oversees the association’s long-range preservation work and keeps field decisions aligned with the archive, the site’s daily use, and public accountability.
Team
The people keeping the grounds legible across generations
Our team combines archival discipline, field observation, maintenance work, and public interpretation so the parsonage landscape remains both documented and lived in.
Shared Work
The association relies on people who can read a site from several angles at once: what the archive says, what the building fabric reveals, what older residents remember, and what the landscape is asking for now.
Each member below contributes a different kind of attention, from oral history interviews and collection care to seasonal repair, walk design, and public programming. Together they keep the work precise enough for researchers and open enough for neighbors, visitors, and volunteers.
Documentation, maintenance, and public access
The team’s current cycle balances object cataloguing, route mapping, orchard care, volunteer coordination, and interpretation for guided visits throughout the year.
All Team Members
Elin Nordman
Elin organizes photographs, letters, and donor records, with particular care for the context that links family memory to exact rooms, routes, and dates.
Mikael Sandvik
Mikael records interviews on site and documents the practical details that give recollections weight, including weather, vantage point, and route through the grounds.
Sofia Lindqvist
Sofia stabilizes fragile materials and advises on storage so objects remain accessible without losing the wear marks that make their history legible.
Henrik Ahlskog
Henrik monitors paths, drainage, and orchard edges, treating maintenance as a record of how people have continued to move through and depend on the place.
Maria Stenbacka
Maria schedules workdays, matches volunteers to tasks, and makes sure practical care on the grounds feeds back into the association’s shared documentation.
Oskar Nyman
Oskar leads walks and site conversations that help visitors understand the grounds as a working landscape rather than a sealed historical monument.
Linnea Forsman
Linnea shapes field notes, captions, and interpretive texts into publishable material while preserving uncertainty where the historical record remains incomplete.
How The Team Works
Site-first
Interpretation begins with what can still be seen, repaired, walked, and verified on the grounds.
Archive-aware
Records, photographs, and oral accounts are cross-read rather than treated as isolated sources.
Public-facing
The team keeps research open to residents, volunteers, and visitors through guided access and shared materials.
